There is a clearly-defined wall of snow falling and the train is in the middle of it! The train was moving faster than the storm and the train would reach us before the snow. Shortly after the train passed, the snow arrived and it was falling with a vengeance. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This spot had been bathed in sunlight until five minute before the train showed up (naturally). So, black and white seemed like the better choice for the shot.
